Remarkable results driven by strategic technology leadership

Driving Growth Through Strategic Technology Leadership

Playace struggled for 7 years to bring their vision to life, lacking the strategic technology leadership necessary to scale their platform effectively. With no in-house CTO, they faced mounting technical debt and ineffective solutions from previous partners. When Srinivas stepped in as a fractional CTO, he brought clarity and direction, aligning technical decisions with business goals. His approach to building a Minimum Marketable Product (MMP) eliminated years of inefficiencies, laid the foundation for long-term growth, and delivered a scalable, user-centric platform. The result? A remarkable 300% growth in platform engagement within months, turning Playace into a trusted name in the industry.

✨ Success in Action ✨

Working with Srinivas has been transformative for Playace. He became more than just a consultant; he was a strategic partner who focused on building a minimal viable product, not rushing to development. Srinivas combines technical expertise with a solid understanding of business, helping us create features that our users love. Thanks to his approach, Playace grew 3X in a few months, and our platform is gaining users faster than ever. Srinivas’s dedication and vision have been vital to our success.”

Get to Know Srinivas Guni,
Your Virtual CTO

A Journey of Innovation, Leadership, and Vision

I’m Srinivas Guni, and my journey as a Founder and CTO spans over 10 years, during which I’ve had the privilege of shaping and driving technology strategies for businesses across 10+ industries, including eCommerce, logistics, finance, travel, and AI. I’ve built, launched, and scaled over 300 products, ranging from mobile apps to enterprise solutions — all designed to solve real-world problems and set businesses up for long-term success.

Over the years, I’ve come to believe that technology should always be seen as a strategic enabler, not just a tool to fix problems. I founded Appoctet with this mindset, challenging the traditional IT industry approach of delivering “quick fixes.” My goal was to create products and systems that would evolve with businesses, scale seamlessly, and make a real impact. I’ve seen firsthand how the right technology can not only solve immediate problems but can also unlock growth opportunities, streamline operations, and transform the way a business operates.

In every project I undertake, I focus on empowering businesses to modernize and scale while ensuring that the technology they adopt is future-proof. My experience working across 10+ industries has given me a unique perspective, helping me craft technology strategies that are not just technically sound but aligned with the broader business vision. Whether it’s building a Minimum Viable Product (MVP), scaling an existing product, or leading digital transformations, I take pride in creating technology ecosystems that drive meaningful business outcomes.
